LP version. "Following the success of his 'Volume' EP earlier this year, Tim Koch backs his synth-pop ridden single with this long-player. Tim has also made music for video games (for Vorlon Software), two albums for Aural Industries, and contributed tracks to Isophlux, Neo-Ouija, Carpark and Smart Pussy. Retaining intricate melodies without being classically 'over-programmed', Shorts In Alaska kicks off with the Plaid-esque 'Blat' which first appeared on the 'Two You See' sampler. The gentle 'Switch Invert' is coupled with the chaotic 'Lull'. The album ends with the complex timing of 'Fobile Moaning'. Essential for fans of: Arovane, Black Dog, Boards of Canada, Warp."
